Women and Cars......

Hi,

Just got back from the local car parts store where I heard an interesting conversation between a lady customer and the guy who owns the shop.

She was trying to buy a Seven Ten Cap for her engine and he was struggling to comprehend what she meant. He asked her to describe it and all she could do was say it used to be on the top of the engine and now it was gone, it had apparently always been there but she had no idea what it did. Finally out of desperation, and asking all the other customers for ideas of what a Seven Ten Cap could be he asked her to draw it.

She drew a 3 inch circle and wrote the numbers 710 in the centre.

Here it is..... Ideas anyone ?

I used to work in a garage when I first left school, gave it up after a couple of years. Bad call, but thats another story.

Anyway, a lady came in complaining that the brakes were causing a strange smell. Nothing could be found wrong with the brake linings, which were fairly new and there was no sign of over-heating or binding.

A test drive was made but nothing was detected. The customer was given a report but not charged. Next day she was back, same complaint.

It was agreed that she should take the workshop foreman for a short drive so he could try to establish what she meant. She drove down to the end of the road and shot out in front of a lorry which narrowly missed them, apparently she then ran two red lights, just missed some people on a crossing and with ever increasing speed took a roundabout on two wheels. By now she was near the garage so the car screamed into the yard and at the last possible moment braked as hard as she could. With tyres screeching she stopped about half an inch from the foremans own BMW.

There now, she said "Can you smell that"

"Smell it Madam" he replied. "I'm sitting in it"

the best one i heard involves a lady and an 'old' mini.

she had been back to the dealers, she bought it from, many times complainig the car seemed sluggish and the fuel consumtion was awful.

the mechanics did all the usual tests and found nothing, but the following week she would be back with the same complaint.

again the tests were carried out, again nothing.

finally the service manager could only think it was something to do with the ladies driving, so he suggested they went out on a test run in the car.

they got in the car, she pulled out the choke which came out horizontally from the dashboard and hung her handbag on it
